Just Hanging Out

Addison and I are confined to the house. I am going through a little dry spell and feel like I am losing my milk. This means a lot of nursing. Addison is loving and hating it at the same time as am I. We are getting in a lot of quality bonding time though. I have been feeling lately how blessed Dave and I are to be her parents. It hits me every once in a while that she is ours. She has so much of us both in her it is very interesting! Even though I find myself not really knowing what to do with her somehow at the end of the day she is always still smiling at me (or scowling, but i'll take either). So today I am taking a breather and realizing how great it is to be a mama.

What makes Addison her:

*When she gets excited (usually when she sees that I am giving in and picking her up) she stomps her right foot really fast and hard.
* Dave can get her to laugh so hard by doing anything. It kills me that I can't get her to do this, but I love that they can get each other going.
*Still hates gets dressed/changed. She has lungs...that work really well!
* She will stop crying if you start to sing,  If your happy and you know it...
* Likes to hold the pages of the book while we look at them
* Still loves her binky
* Sleeps with her blanket tucked by her cheek (she gets that from me)
* Loves to stand. Hates to sit and still REALLY hates tummy time. We are making small strides with this one.
* Will sit in her swing while I make dinner and talk to herself. We like to call it the cats meow. She is loud and goes for a long time.
* No luck on rolling over yet and not really interested in the thought of it either.
* Isn't spitting up as much which equals me smelling just a little better everyday!
* Absolutely loves bath time...until you start to wash her then it is all down hill.
* Is getting more hair on top of her head. It is looking like a dirty blonde.
* Has tiny feet (she gets this from me as well) and short arms. She wears bigger clothes, but her poor arms are too short so we have to roll everything. The little lady has so many cute shoes just waiting for her! She is barley a size 1. She missed out on a LOT of sandals this summer. Grow feet grow!!
*Has Dave's little eyes. I love it.
* She has blue eyes. We thought that they would change and they still might. Neither of us has blue eyes which always raises questions:)
* Loves to go on walks in her stroller.
* She is a pretty good sleeper. I love her for this so very much!
* Has the best rolls all over in the world!

We love you Addison and don't want you to ever forget that! 

 Do you see that DROOL!

 Dave told me to grab her a jacket...I think she is going to out grow this one before it is time!

Dinner at Reb Robin...Yummy!
